  • Platform Contributions: Document and improve shared patterns, standards, and tooling across our engineering org
  • Data Engineering (Optional): Support data lakehouse and ELT pipelines if you're interested in contributing in that space
Requirements:
  • Hands-on PostgreSQL experience in production environments, ideally within AWS (Aurora, RDS)
  • Proven ability to design and evolve schemas for fast-changing product environments
  • Strong understanding of query performance, indexing, and relational data modelling
  • Comfort working in cross-functional squads with engineers, product managers, and TPMs
  • Clear thinking around data architecture, standards, and trade-offs
  • Experience with monitoring and alerting tools (e.g. CloudWatch, Datadog) and a proactive mindset
  • Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform), scripting, or Python is nice to have

This is an opportunity to join our team and make a meaningful impact on our data systems.
